Kala Ghoda Art Festival 2014
The most to enjoy during the day were collegiate and young crowd which later as the day advanced changed to a more art centric crowd.
The Jehangir Art Gallery too had many visitors , other than the only ones interested in art, as the ones who visited the Kala Ghoda Festival sure took a dekho at the art.
Impulsive art buyers and some serious art buyers were on the lookout for some great art. The miniature affordable were great , small sized artworks of landscapes , framed at Rs 250 each.
The Kala Ghoda Signature Campaign
With the festival coming in news for wrong reasons there was signature campaign to save the festival as of complaints received to stop the festival on roads.
Even after so many years the Kala Ghoda Arts Festival is celebrated with the same enthusiasm and fanfare. There are artists who wait to display their art for the whole year and to participate even with a small stall , some make customized artworks for sale at the festival and some waiting for public exposure at a vast level.
wish the festival luck, and many many years of such happiness and being a great opportunity to artists continue...
 as notices of Do Not Photograph   were all around but public did not heed nor did the artists take any objection as they were happy to get happy visitors look at their art!
